I never watched it, but I've heard about this show both in passing and in "left spaces." Are any of these things true about it? Thanks.

--It is too on the nose with its social commentary. --The criticism it makes is obvious. --The subjects it tackles are low-hanging fruit of the digital era. --It is the stupid person's idea of a profound show. --Something about it being British led to more dunks on it. --The reason it entered left discourse in the first place is because it had potential as a critical text, but ultimately failed at it.

    It is too on the nose with its social commentary.

    I think that's more of a case of reality being too on the nose - the episode where the british prime minister fucks a pig was released 4 years before british prime minister David Cameron was revelead to have fucked a pig
